Does anyone know if they're made from food grade plastic? ...I want to use them for condiments. Perhaps there is a recycle number? ...or "BPA-free"?

Not sure about that but I do know that lotion and thicker soap does not pump very well - I had to put thin soap in it

Definitely not airtight. Don't remember where they were made or if plastic is BPA free. Sorry I couldn't help you out more.

It doesn't say it's free of anything. The plastic is a very hard plastic. They are made in China and patent pending(according to bottom stamps). I'm glad you asked, I assumed it would be free of all the garbage but I'm starting to doubt it as it doesn't say that it is. They were very handy for kids lunches, and for the price not a big deal if one gets misplaced. I won't be buying another set if they don't advertise what they are "free" of. Pretty sad we have to watch our backside so close for fear of what we are ingesting!!

Yes, these are BPA free. If you read under the bottle description, it will say dishwasher safe and BPA free. Yay!!!

They appear to be constructed of either polypropylene or polyethylene and neither of those use BPA. That chemical tends to only be used in vinyl or poly carbonate. Nordic Ware would probably provide you with an accurate answer if you shoot them an email.

I have been looking at these same bowls and found the description on amazon lacking. I found info about these on a competitor's site. The bowls are 18/10 stainless and are dishwasher-safe. The plastic lids are BPA-free and are safe on the top shelf of the dishwasher. Hope that helps you out.

Dear Dave I'm surprised you are asking me...the best person is to ask is the seller of the product. I don't sell these jars. I only ordered them off Amazon. My hope is that they are BPA free.

I would check directly with the company. Since IT IS NOT stated on the can, I DOUBT they are BPA free.

I'm not sure, but it's bpa free plastic and they've been working really well for me. Large containers!

Since they are NOT made in the US, (these are from Italy) they are not obligated to tell you if they are or are not BPA free. I checked my lids and other than saying dishwasher safe (upper rack) there is no other information. I don't use the lids in the microwave if that is the big concern. I would err on the safe side and tell you not to use the lids in heated situations and not put in dishwasher until you are sure. I still love these containers and freeze soups in them and reheat in same, but I also don't have kids and I know that is a big concern for young people being exposed to BPA. Wish I could help more.

I just today (9/23/2014) received 2 of these Rubbermaid White Ice Cube Trays. There is NO symbol on them that says "BPA FREE". Also, on the packaging it says copywrite 2007 (I'm not sure what that means). So I called Rubbermaid. They said that starting in 2008, all Rubbermaid products were BPA-free AND that these products would say "BPA free" in that little triangle symbol. I asked the Rubbermaid customer service person, "So if these do not have that "BPA free" on the bottom should I assume that they are NOT BPA-free. She said "yes". Based on that I'm concluding these trays are NOT BPA-free, and were manufactured prior to 2008. If I am wrong someone please clarify. Kind of bugs me Amazon is selling something so old (again, if I am wrong let's clarify) - and that I am just going to throw these away.

Hi Dustin, yes the spatulas are BPA free. No plastics, just 100% food grade silicone. Hope this helps. Regards, Matt - StarPack Team

I do know that they are made in the USA, so most likely they are BPA free. To the best of my knowledge, most plastics recently made in the USA are BPA free. I love mine. Have had them for a little over a year. We use them all the time, and have had only one crack.

These bowls are stainless steel and not made out of plastic, so yes, they must be BPA free.. Now as to the lids which are indeed plastic, from my best guess, they probably do contain BPA - but since they don't touch what's inside, this may not be an issue

Corey....That's a very good question. I hadn't thought about BPA content in these disposable ice cube trays. Have been trying to find info on the Net about this particular product. Also, after reading your question, I have examined the "outside" plastic bag in which these disposable bags are folded. There is no information about BPA nor is there a recycle number. What I did find is that this product is made in China.

I don't remember if they are bpa free. What I can tell you is that your food should be about a 1/4 to 1/2 inch below the plastic parts. They shouldn't touch.

They are plastic but they are extremely durable and i have never had a problem with them. I make soup by pouring boiling liquid in them and they hold up just fine. My biggest advise is that if you are using something that could possibly stain it ex. tomato soup then clean it as soon as possible since cleaning is so easy.
